The ST Louis end of the Pennsylvania line is
cropping in the dark TO the ultimate inten-

The Kind of Man Plymouth Church Wants.
New YORK. June 4.-The question of Henry
Ward Beechers successor as pastor of Plymouth
Church discussed at some length last even
ing at a business meeting of the church. held
after the usual Friday night prayer meeting.
Prof. Raym suggested that committee
should be appointed to consider the subject of a
permanent supply for the pulpit. and to report
some time next fall This did not suit the views
of some, and motion was made to leave the
whole matter in the hands of the advisory COM
mittee. Something in the way the discussion
going reused Mr. Thomas G. Shearman,
and he was rather flushed while he made a short
speech referring to past incidents in Mr.. Beech
er's life. He could afford to be magnanimous."
said Mr.. Sherman, "but we have no right to
exercise maenanmity for him. We owe it to
him to be faithful TO his memory. The danger
lies in the temptation for us to be too magnani-
nous. We should never take step toward ask
ing any to condone offense of having
that great ana best man for our pastor"
A very decided outbnrst of applause made Mr..
Shearman pause for a moment. but he re-
sumed his remarks: I'VE don't want to 60 back
with Jonah into the belly of whale. and we
want no man, however eloquent. who represents
ideas not of Mr. Beecher's school. trust we
shall call a man who will be faithful in preach
ing gospel Of love, not fear of God"

sionLRussia's Opportunity.
Special to the lndianaDolis Journal
LONDON, June At is again announced that
the labors of the Afghan frontier commission
are virtually at end. The divergence of views
between the English and Russian commissioners
is SO great that all hope of adjusting them has
been abandoned, and both parties have decided
to refer the matter back to their respective gov
ernments. 1t would be altogether premature to
attempt to fix blame either one side or tho
other, and he would be bold who,i
remembering the blunders which Eng lish
diplomates have made in this Afghan frontier
business would assert that Russia is solely at
fault. The nature of tho dispute is at present
only matter of conjecture. There is, however,
one thing pretty safe to assume Russia wishes
to obtain permanent possession of Meruschaks
but that is what Sir West Ridgeway was totally
unable to concede. Rightly or wrongly, the Int
dian government attaches the high
est Importance to the continued posses
sion Of Meruschak by Afghanistans
and If Russia persists in that demand there ia
little chance of settlement. The dispute must,
then, be left open, possibly to become critical at
